As well you know you're mine
You're going through hard times
She's close to leavingWell, I don't know all that much
But you're maybe out of touch
With what she's feeling
So before she slips away
You'd better give her
What she's needingYou got to hold a woman
To hold her and to warm up
Those tender moments
That's all she's wantingYou got to slide on over
Really get to know her
Keep her in your arms
After the loving is over
You got to hold a woman
To hold a womanAnd make her understand
You wanna be her friend
Not just her lover
It ain't about some renting homes
She just wants to know
You're thinking of herOh, now this is just me talking
But from one friend to anotherYou got to hold a woman
To hold a woman
Those tender moments
That's all she's wantingYou got to slide on over
Really get to know her
Keep her in your arms
After the loving is over
You got to hold a woman
To hold a womanYou got to slide on over
Really get to know her
Keep her in your arms
After the loving is over
You got to hold a woman
To hold a woman
